Goats Giving Birth
What to Expect during Kidding Season
Deborah Niemann
There is nothing about goat care that creates more anticipation,
excitement, frustration, and fear than birthing goats. What can you expect
with a goat pregnancy? What do you do if things go wrong when goats give
birth? What happens when you have a challenging newborn kid?
Seasoned goat farmer Deborah Niemann, author of Raising Goats
Naturally, answers these questions and more by distilling the stories and
experiences from over 600 goat pregnancies and births.
Coverage includes:
u The differences between normal goat pregnancies
u Necessary C-sections
u Incidents that may turn deadly serious.
For both new and experienced goat owners, Goats Giving Birth illuminates
the joy, the sadness, and everything in between when birthing pregnant
goats, giving you the confidence to handle a large spectrum of goat
pregnancies and help birth happy thriving kids.
Deborah Niemann and her family moved to the country in 2002,
and soon 2 goats turned into 20, and a desire to make a simple chèvre
launched a new career helping people raise goats. Deborah is the author of
Homegrown and Handmade, Ecothrifty, and Raising Goats Naturally. She
blogs at thriftyhomesteader.com from her farm in Illinois.
